What do you think about fox news doctoring photos? have they sunk to a new low ?
I bet the same 25 % that support Bush are the same people that watch fax foxs.There is no way that fox shouls be called news.This is what fox news has done in the past months
1. called the Obama's fist bump a terrorist fist jab
2. called michelle Obama a baby mama
3. generalized all black woman as angry and said they are angry because their son was killed in a drive by(way to stereotype all black man as gangbangers)
4.Then they reported that Obama's brother said that he was raised muslim and then had to apologize on Tv when they found out that his c omment was misquoted( I guess they dont check sources)
5. Now they are doctoring Photos of people
I mean what will Fox do next?

Fox news needs pulled off the air. They are by far unfair and unbalanced. The likes of Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity have no right to even express an opinion on tv news. They both act like they are god and everything they say is 100% truth. The network is full of crazy conservatives who side with Republicans on all issues imaginable. This is ridiculous. If MSNBC pulled this stunt, Fox News would be all over it. It's about time they get a dose of their own medicine.

I agree the "terrorist" fist jab was bad, so did the network that's why the anchor apologized on air. About the baby mama comment, neither the anchor or guest actually said baby mama, but it was in the graphics below as a characterization of what Obama supporters might say in response to a movie critical of Michelle Obama - Bill Shine, senior vice president of programming at Fox, said in a statement that a producer "exercised poor judgment" during the segment. About the angry black woman comment - he was commenting on how black woman are portrayed in the media, it's not politically correct to make such observations, but I do not think it is racist. The confusion with Malik Obama was the result of a botched translation. As far as the photo shopping claims go, you haven't provided enough information to indicate if they truly were photo shopped and if they were by whom? at what level? and did the producer know?
The fact of the matter is every media outlet screws up from time to time.
A lot of people enjoy Fox News (myself included) and Fox News has a record of admitting their mistakes.
Some people are dead-set on portraying Fox as evil, if they want to that is their business, but I'm an educated viewer and I trust my own opinion.

It is amazing that all of you feel this way because you obviously watch it nightly to be such experts on it.
Fox is watched by more people in this country than any other news station. That is a fact and that must mean there are a hell of a lot of people who don't agree with your little opinions.
I thought those photos were hilarious, and Don't some of you remember that Hilliary put out some photo's of Obama posing with some idiot and doctored those photos to make Obama look darker and more Muslim? Don't throw stones in Glass houses you may break something.

From TV Newser;
Q2 2008 Ratings: Rankers
Fox News was the top rated cable news network during Q2 prime time, finishing in sixth place (Live+SD). CNN was 21st and MSNBC 27th.
In total day, FNC ranked #9, with CNN and MSNBC at #22 and #28.
Click here to see the Q2 cable ranker.
Fox News Channel had nine of the top 10 cable news programs during Q2 in Total Viewers, with The O'Reilly Factor #1. The top CNN program in Total Viewers was Larry King Live, in sixth place, and the top MSNBC program was Countdown with Keith Olbermann in 20th place.
In the A25-54 demo, Fox News had six of the top 10 programs, with The O'Reilly Factor again in first. CNN's top program, CNN Election Center, came in 4th, with Countdown was tops for MSNBC in 8th.

> Update: An emailer noted the program ranker is an average of 6amET-11pmET, which means shows like Countdown with Keith Olbermann at 8pmET and 10pmET are averaged together, thus affecting the overall average. Programs like The O'Reilly Factor, which repeats at 11pmET, are counted separately.

1. The first bump has become common through the advent of television's Howie Mandel, he didn't start it, but even people over the age of 40 have now seen it through Deal or No Deal.
2. Baby mama is NOT common terminology with anyone except the teenagers. OMG, if my husband called me his baby mama I'd show him a thing or two.
3. Killed in a drive-by? Now isn't that lovely. I know plenty of black people who have never seen a gun much less a drive-by near their home.
4. It's fun to misquote without fact checking.
5. Well how else can they vilify someone. They are lucky that the press is free. Personally if it were I and they did that, I would sue for defamation.

What about Liz Trotta? Why wasn't this lady fired? I do find it funny that Obama still manages to lead in Fox News polls.
- dlkLv 71 decade ago
I am sorry, I do NOT agree with you. Obama does have a muslim brother, a muslim sister, muslim relatives. Obama himself WAS A MUSLIM, went to muslim schools UNTIL later in life. Obama only turned to his so called "christianity" when the tides turned and some were pushing him towards his political arena. These are facts, but I am sure you would much rather believe in Obama's lies when documents and other important information proove otherwise. Just keep on drinking that kool aide and there will be NO USA by 2012.

You dare degrade Fox News without strong condemnation for the other outlets that are so grossly biased, they are losing viewers by the thousands each day?
MSNBC - 12 viewers, including 4 family members of moron keith oberman
CNN - Clinton News Network
ABC - All 'Bout Clinton
NBC - lol... not even worthy of a piffy comment they suck so bad
CBS - Clinton Broadcasting System
PBS - the TV version of NPR
By the way... Fox didn't "make up" the story about Obama's Bro. It's all over the place INCLUDING pictures of him holding up a picture of Barack in his muslim bedsheets! Just Google it

Well, I watch Fox news a lot (apparently you do too) but I haven't seen them do any of those things. They have repeated AP stories & they tell you when they are reporting a story that was broken by another news service; I.E. the bro bump etc.
Obama was raised as a muslim...where do you place the cut off of "raising"?
obama better hope michelle obama is his baby momma or the shite will hit the fan.
black women are angry; blacks in general are angry.
Fox news docotored photos? What's your source?
What they'll do next is continue to broadcast the "news" that's reported, whether by them or another news service.

Fox isn't for people who really want the news. It's for conservatives who want to be told what they want to hear. If you want to find the trashiest most lurid non-news, go to their website. You can see that Fox "News" is about as credible as the tabloids that talk about the aliens landing in New Jersey.
I saw the altered photos and it's typical childish Fox BS. Real shocker.
